Related List, when placed in a Tabbed Section, is missing some features

cc11 · ‎07-22-2017

I have two screenshots below.

In screenshot 1, the related lists 'Attachments' & 'Escalations' 'were simply added to the form's view (not in any section). It displays 'New' button & also the count of number of records & some other useful List features.

In screenshot 2, I created two sections on the form- 'Attachments' and 'Escalations' - in order to place the respective related lists on them.

I placed the same related lists on their respective section, (Tabbed or non-Tabbed layout, that wont matter).

Now, it wont display the 'New' button nor the count and other list features.

Anybody knows what I am missing and how to achieve that?

screenshot 1:

screenshot 2:

You may ask why I am doing it this way - Because, if you see screenshot 2, I have an additional Tab( or section) called 'General'. There I am placing all form fields. And I need other related Lists to be displayed adjacent to my General tab.

Any help would be appreciated,

Thank you,

Yogesh

Hi Yogesh,

This is what I explained above. Please check my 2nd reply.

"Other option is to create a UI Formatter and add the formatter to the section. Example is 'Table's' Embedded list as shown below. It has 'New' and 'Search' options."

This comes from the the Formatter 'table_col_embedded' - https://instancename.service-now.com/sys_ui_formatter.do?sys_id=5a2795d4bf7030001875647fcf0739d7&sys...

Thanks

I have created an idea to have it built-in the product.

If you like the idea, please vote for it.

I am going to re-open this thread for sometime.

I just saw that what I want to achieve already exists somewhere!

if you click on a form > Configure > Table

On the Table form, I could see three Tabs - Columns, Controls & Application Access

The Columns Tab has all the features of a list ('New' button, Search filters etc..)

Also, the adjacent Tabs- Controls & Application Access - have fields.

This is exactly what I want to achieve. (Some Tabs with Lists with full features 'New' button, Search Filters etc and other Tabs with just fields (or other Lists))

Can some one help me to know how it can be achieved?

Regards,

Yogesh

Please refer the thread below.

Embedded List Add or New Button

Harsh Vardhan · ‎07-22-2017

there is UI Action "New" on "sys_dictionary" table. that's the reason it is available there.

Sorry to re-open this thread again and again. But I am still unclear how the UI action 'New' is appearing as a button on the Dictionary form.

I dont see any UI action options selected in the screenshot below. (I hope that I am looking at the right record).
